#100296 Fire ResQ (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 284 Re:Need more or faster speed from my 01 Roadstar ? 4 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Stumpman, My dad has a Valkyrie Interstate, the big touring bike with bags trunk etc. That thing moves, it has a ton of horsepower. That being said, I put a 31T on my 2003, and now almost runs with the Big Valk. The 31T was a big improvement in the bottom end, feels like it jumps off the line.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #100337 smhowse (User) NOPE, it's a Roadstar! Platinum Boarder Posts: 1447 Re:Need more or faster speed from my 01 Roadstar ? 4 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I second what BB and FireresQ said pony up $500 for the 31 tooth pully and the Dyna 3000, check your jetting and I think you will be VERY impressed with the way she runs!

I told the wife I am ordering those parts and giving them a try first before I sell it..... it's a sweet looking bike so I would like to get it where I am happy. I am selling my FZ1 if anyone is interested she won't ride it with me anywhere LOL It is a fast bike and will out run the Valk! Thanks for y'alls Ideas I can't wait to try it out.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #100399 stumpman (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 74 Re:Need more or faster speed from my 01 Roadstar ? 4 Months, 2 Weeks ago   What would it do if I just put the Dyna 3000 on the bike? I have been reading that the 31T will take away some top end speeds is this true?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #100401 roadstar_rider (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 166 Re:Need more or faster speed from my 01 Roadstar ? 4 Months, 2 Weeks ago   you have to find a happy medium take away from top end to get bottom end true!!!!!   Logged     [img size=150][/img]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #100432 Curt (User) Never to old to ride! Platinum Boarder Posts: 3066 Re:Need more or faster speed from my 01 Roadstar ? 4 Months, 2 Weeks ago   You can select your curve for the ignition and you can raise your rev limit. I have my limit set at 5500 but I never hit it I have hit 5100-5200. My curve is set at 34A I did run it for a while at 36A and that put my HP/Torque curve at to high a rpm for me. With it at 34A I can run 70-80 and still get some hump out of it if I want to pass or relly go.   Logged     Black Ice is Shinny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #100439 shacky (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 172 Re:Need more or faster speed from my 01 Roadstar 4 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Curt, What will the stock valve springs take? 5500? I need to budge for the Dyna. New seat to make the wife happy or Dyna to make me happy?

Over 5500 and the stock top end starts to float away.

I have ridden cruisers for years I just got the FZ a few months ago I don't expect the cruiser to perform like the sport bike does it has about 60+- less HP then the FZ. There is a time and need for both types of bike but this cruiser runs like a pig as far as take off goes... I think this Dyna 3000 just might do the trick. I ordered it on line just a minute ago so when it gets here and I get her on I will let you great folks know what response I get out of it. Thanks for all the input on this thread I do appreciate it.   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/07/14 20:33 By stumpman.     The administrator has disabled public write access.
